Hi Mr Won,

Is there a tentative date for the festival? Or it is already said somewhere?

Please let me know.

Thanks

Hello again Mr. Won!

I have been watching the WTAF 2007 videos on youtube.com and found myself wishing I had been there! I'll go to your blog after I write this letter.

As far as 2008, I don't think I'll make it this year as I am finishing my master's Degree this spring (spring 2008) and will be too busy, but by 2009 I should have much more free time! and would really love to attend then. 2009 seems like a long time from now, but I know the time will go by very quickly!

Thanks for your work in advertising the WTAF!

Wonderful pictures! Thanks for sharing.

By the way, anybody could ask for me what's the price for the Korean whistling arrows, please?

Great pictures, it's the closest thing to be there. I really enjoyed the kazuya-koshiya samurai performance.

Oops, I thought the Korean arrows were offered for sale. It'd be interesting if you find out something else about them.

Thanks!
